  1. Since the etrex uses serial only and the Mac doesn't support serial you need one of these (or something like it). Also you need a program to upload to your GPSr. What I use on my Mac is MacGPSBabel. It is a little outdated but it works non-the-less. Good luck!
  2. As a follow up to WIsearcher's question: What are some ideas for hiding an underwater cache, particularly in somewhat shallow water, say waist high? There is a very nice bay near where I live and I thought it would be a great location for a cache. Thanks for the help.
  3. Since macgpsbabel can convert a gpx file to text will it contain all the info in a the gpx file so I can just drag the .txt file to my iPod?
  4. Is there anything included in Pocket Queries that isn't include when you do a normal search and download the .loc file? Thanks, fr3nch13
  5. OK, since GarminUSBTool doesn't send waypoints, how do you get macgpsbabel to work. I have built it with XCode and I get this: AppleScript Error sh: line 1: /Users/bruce/Desktop/gpsbabel-1.2.7/macgpsbabel/build/MacGPSBabel.app/Contents/Resources/gpsbabel: is a directory (126) Does anyone know how to properly build macgpsbabel or where I can get a binary for it? Thanks a lot.
  6. Has any one tried GarminUSBTool? It seems like it should work, but I don't have my unit on hand. It is native to OS X so you don't have to mess with VPC.
  7. Thanks for all the help, now I'll just have to start saving (college is expensive).
  8. Thanks a lot I've been on their site many times but missed that, thanks!
  9. I am currenty looking for my first GPS. I am fairly familiar with GPSs from my parents' boat when I was a kid. I am looking at the etrex series, particularly the Legends. What are some of the differences between the Legend and Legend C (besides the color screen)? Thanks for the help everyone, Bruce
